We consider the problem of retrieving consistent answers over databases that might be inconsistent with respect to some given integrity constraints. In particular, we concentrate o...
Background: Subtle alternative splicing events involving tandem splice sites separated by a short (2-12 nucleotides) distance are frequent and evolutionarily widespread in eukaryo...
If you were told that some object A was perfectly (or somewhat, or not at all) in some direction (e.g., west, above-right) of some reference object B, where in space would you loo...
Current cluster architectures provide the ideal environment to run federations of main-memory database systems (FMMDBs). In FMMDBs, data resides in the main memory of the federati...
This paper describes the architectures that can be used to build highly available database management systems. We describe these architectures along two dimensions – process redu...
